The sentiment is defined to be a personal positive or negative feelings. We built n-gram language models over zoos of positive and negative tweets. We assert the polarity of a given tweet by observing the perplexity with the positive or negative language model. The given tweet is considered to be close to the language model that assigns lower perplexity. %G English %Z TC 8 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01656232/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01656232/file/448933_1_En_22_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01656232 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01656232 %~ SHS %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC8 %~ IFIP-CISIM %~ IFIP-LNCS-10244
